Netanyahu's wife shares conspiracy claim that opposition leader knew of Oct 7 attacks in advance
As Israel prepares for what are expected to be close-fought parliamentary elections in October, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wife Sara on Monday shared a conspiracy theory that centre-left opposition figure Yair Golan had advance warning of the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 attacks.
Democratic Party chairman Yair Golan is expected to send a warning to Sara Netanyahu and Channel 14 ahead of a potential defamation lawsuit over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's comments. The controversy came after Sara Netanyahu suggested that Golan had advance knowledge of the October 7 Hamas attack, which drew international attention.
French news agency AFP reported on the remarks, which were made under a headline alleging that the Israeli prime minister's wife had attacked a political rival while spreading a conspiracy theory.
